My boys love figures. Figures of any kind…….super heroes, star wars, playmobil. They play with them, carry them everywhere and even sleep with them (so much for all of those stuffed animals in their room). The latest “IT” toy in our house is a bucket of How to Train Your Dragon dragons. I found this at Walmart and it became an instant hit. All I hear from The Destroyer now is “Mama - let’s play dragons in the kitchen”. For an adult, at first glance, there isn’t anything all that special about these dragon/viking figures. It’s a bucket of figures - monkeys, dragons. You know. But when you take them out you will see that these are no dollar store army men type figures. 1) They actually stand up. All of them. 2) They are impeccably detailed. Hiccup looks exactly like he did in the movie - as do all of the other figures. 3) They are color coordinated. Let’s face it folks - there are a couple of dragons, a couple of vikings and they all have weird names. Now I’m supposed to remember which dragon goes with which viking? Problem solved!!!
Not only do we set these up and knock them down over and over, they would make great party favors or even cupcake toppers! And with the movie release date almost upon us - this would make a cute little surprise gift! Don’t ya think???
You can find these at your local Walmart or here in our Shop!
HAVE FUN!
